SO many Races so many Faces
Different voices Different Choices
Back in 1990's When Francis M. was still in the heat of his career this song was a chart topper, and now, this song relentlessly exist but this song will mean much more today than yesterday. Being a peace volunteer changes a lot in me, I never thought that it would be as hard as this. leaving Philippines was an idea not to leave my family behind but to take part in something more, and this was the journey I've taken a flight to Russia for a year. A week before I came here, there was a picture of what is in store for me and now the picture is bigger than the life itself. Paradoxically.
Meeting a bunch of young kids ready to face the world unknown. These youngster are in their 16 and 17's and though they are really young they think. I can imagine myself back then, taking responsibility on my own when I was in the University. Italians,Germans,Americans,Swiss,Canadians,Thai,Japanese, and Russian with these kids I finally realized that we are ahead of our time and that of we are making changes despite of the challenges we have to face here. Reality bites in some ways but issues like Racial Discrimination would just be here as long as we are not making our actions to change the status qou.
